Proud New Owner !!
 

So I recently came across a deal of a lifetime that made me the proud new owner of a Mariah. After visiting with a friend of my fathers, I learned he had a 1995 Mariah Shabah 202 that he had owned since it came off the showroom floor in early '96.

The boat was taken out on the water a total of 2 times before it was stored in a garage. Since then, the boat only came out of the garage to be service every couple of years, but never touched the water again. I made him an offer on the boat and he accepted. :wink_thumbup: After taking it out the first time it ran flawlessly and the interior looked brand new. I ran the boat for 2 hours which brought the total hours on the boat to 12. So in one trip I put 20% of its hours on the boat.

After that winter came down on quick, so I had to winterize it and store it for the winter, but now I can hardly wait for summer. My wife bought me a wakeboard for Christmas, so now I even more excited to hit the water!

I have been a fan of Mariahs for a long time, so its good to see there are so many others out there.
